Roxanne: 1985 Cj-7

[redcagepatrol]

Why a corvette master cylinder? Because it bolts up to your booster or does it works well?

Yes - that's what I'm running in Lynda's too. Made for disc brakes front and rear.

[AggieTJ2007]

does it have enough volume for 3/4 ton calipers?

[85cj7]

Yes. I've been running one since 2010 and have liked it. (1994 yj booster, 1968 corvette master cylinder, willwood adjustable proportioning valve, chevy 3/4ton calipers front and rear). My old master cylinder died while it sat in the garage this year. I think I had some water and mud in the fluid and that didn't help. I flushed the system and replaced the master (as well as a few lines that I was never happy with) and am good to go. . . . it might need some more bleeding.

Does anyone have any interest in purchasing the Jeep from me? I'm thinking it over. Send me a PM if you are interested. Thanks.

[bcolman]

I would be interested but you would not like my offer

[85cj7]

Shoot me a number. I have an idea of what I think is realistic but I also want to gauge the market. . . although maybe not the Colman market.

[bcolman]

That is why I am not going to shoot you a price, because I know it is worth more than what I would want to offer right now

[Shaggy]

Can you throw up a quick list of specs. I wouldn't mind getting another one for my brother.

[Sparling]

There definitely isn't a build thread that you could/should read if you wanted to buy this thing tate.

[Seth]

standard offer. 50 bucks. Can you take a check?

[JB]

****ing why?

[TdmayfieldIV]

I'll buy it if you add a 3rd b pillar

[FJAggie07]

Tree fitty?

Good luck with the sale buddy. I have loved this jeep since the first time it went to 47.

Aw. Sorry to hear you're selling it.



You know they make tops for Jeeps and you can add heat and A/C...or if you want to be cool, get an FSJ.
